Unable to deal with his fate, he turns his back on family and girlfriend and becomes a self-pitying, drunken bum. But things change when he meets Anamika (Christina Applegate), who introduces him to a variety of friends who start him on the road to recovery. One of the friends, Geek (David Burke), is a computer whiz and fixes him up with sound-sensitive fingers as well as providing him with a new persona–Cyberstorm. Fame comes quickly, and he is able to not only get revenge on the hoods, but to make up with family and friends. Good premise, but not-so-good execution.
